We need pictures of sudoroom and the people in it doing cool stuff! We're making a presentation for potential lenders who need to see how awesome sudoroom is! Presently missing pictures of people hacking raw electronics, using the laser cutter, and the wood shop and lathe! Try to upload links to pictures, rather than the pictures themselves, if you have a Google photos link for example. Or if you only are able to email the pictures, just email them to me not to the list!

Foreclosure

by William Myers

Hello SUDO, I'm sorry to announce that the Foreclosure is moving forward and will have ~ 90 days to come up with around 1 million dollars or the building can be sold. - We will keep the ball rolling with our conversations with CAST to potentially come up with the needed funds - We will of course be looking into any other funding options, ideas are always welcome Best William *Below is correspondence and some notes from our Lawyer: * *Just wanted to let you know that the Mulberry Trust will be proceeding with foreclosing on the property. A new trustee will be taking over the work and proceed with the foreclosure. Mulberry Trust also wanted to let you know that they'll be adding a late fee of $283.90 to the principal since Omni didn't make a payment for April. Once the foreclosure is filed, they won't be able to accept any further payments. It's truly unfortunate that this happened but the MT did not have any other choice given the circumstances, and it does not look like there will be an assignment of the note to another individual or entity. * *Below is an email I sent you previously regarding the timeline and Omni's right to pay the debt even after foreclosure begins. Note that the longer you wait, the more legal incurred by lender Omni will have to pay. Let me know if there's any way I can help.* *----* *If they proceed as quickly as possible, they can schedule a* *foreclosure sale no sooner than 90 days after the date on which theyrecord a notice of default. Because the loan is a commercial loan, itis on a fast timeline.1. They have to give you notice of recording the notice of default.After the notice of default is recorded, the lender has to mail, post,record and publish a notice of sale.Omni has a right to pay the debt up to 5 business days before theforeclosure sale date. (See Civil Code Section 2924c(e). The dateis extended in various ways if the foreclosure sale doesn't happen.*

Learning how to learn / hacking learning and note taking subgroup at SudoRoom

by Romy Ilano

Speaking to folks at Noisebridge, but I'm thinking of starting a learning how to learn subgroup at SudoRoom. This would include topics such as: - Switching back to analog for notetaking and learning - Mixing analog notes and ebooks - doing digital detox on your laptops and phones and tablets so that they become learning devices instead of consumption devices - Creating a picture of new technologies like AI which seem to be constantly changing I'm not sure what a good time to meet for this would be... I'm guessing Tuesday? I am not sure I can come in this week though! I have job interviews. But I think cross meeting between SudoRoom, Noisebridge and other spaces is ideal! ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

Trump Satire

by Ira Brightman

*Hi All,* *I'm trying to hire someone to create a website where I can put up my recently-completed Trump satire -- updated for 2024. (And/or put it on Substack which I can't figure out how to do either.) I will offer it for free and ask for donations at the end. Happy to pay you whatever is required. Prefer a fellow Trump-hater (but what cognizant person isn't?).* *You can contact me at my more private email (preferred) IraBrightman900(a)yahoo.com <IraBrightman900(a)yahoo.com> or if you must by return email here. * *Below are reviews from the original work that was on Amazon (essentially the same but now updated and improved).* *Best,* *Ira Brightman* *Top reviews from the United States* * <https://www.amazon.com/gp/profile/amzn1.account.AGX7VTOEIXAJIIKT73XTFZSZPBU…>* *Roberta Spike* <https://www.amazon.com/gp/profile/amzn1.account.AGX7VTOEIXAJIIKT73XTFZSZPBU…> *5.0 out of 5 stars Fun to read* <https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R7HPCM270AZ79/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_rvw…> *Reviewed in the United States on October 21, 2022* *Good for a laugh - but unfortunately too true! Ira really gets it!* *Michael Singer* *4.0 out of 5 stars Never too late* <https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R3TOSTSNEYPY4O/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_rv…> *Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2021* *This spoof of the Trump presidency is still a hysterical reminder of the danger that the former president posed, and that his surrogates are still out there. Though this book is very funny, it also points out that Trump really isn’t a laughing matter.* * Jennifer Sappington* *5.0 out of 5 stars Laughter really is the best medicine - thank you, Dr. Ira!* <https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/RYU9ZU9Y4CO7W/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_rvw…> *Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2018* *There’s a lot of Trump humor out there, but Ira’s stands out because it’s clever, and unique (the “Meet [insert dictator/world leader]” sections were my favorite), and just a delight to read. Also, if you don’t laugh at Ira’s “suggestions” to Trump for cabinet members, it’s probably because you’re unconscious or wearing Q-anon pajamas. *

Japanese study on how analog. / handwriting learning trumps digital only learning and note taking

by Romy Ilano

https://www.pocketprep.com/posts/should-you-study-with-paper-or-screens/ Especially sobering since so many elementary and high schools are switching to stuff like Chrom Books and online distance learning instead of tactile learning with notecards and paper "Our take-home message is to use paper notebooks for information we need to learn or memorize.
